I am from the carribbean. I hate to fly so much. The job I do allow me to travel. When ever I got on a flight I get all sweaty and nervous, until the flight end. I wish there were other ways to travel from where am at. please help me.

Answers:
Get absolutely stinking drunk! You wont remember the flight, or the trip to the hotel, and probably not the first noght. But at least you wont get scared.

I take 1 or 2 sleeping pills as I walk on, im asleep in no time.
2 relax on a plane is NOT 2 GET ON IT
Have a look at the website www.askcaptainlim.com, particularly the FAQs (frequently asked questions) sections covering all aspects of flying, fear of flying, etc.
This site should provide a lot of useful information and reassurance for you, and an informed air traveller is a happier one. Best of luck!
No easy way I'm afraid, you will have to use drugs (as in sleeping pills) especially for really long trips.
put on some good music and close your eyes. I get nervous on planes and it works fine for me. Reading doesn't seem to help because you get distracted so easily.
take up swimming. but you will still be wet. get your doctor to give you a downer.
Take sea sickness pills. Two should do. If possible, take a 5 milligram valium with them but don't take them until you're on the plane.Make sure to have coffeee before leaving the plane. Ask the stewardess to wake you for a coffee for your medication 20 minutes before you land, and for back up support, put a high caffeine chocolate bar in your pocket. By the time you land you'll feel fresh and alive.
you need to face your fears, get someone to take you on a flight in a light aircraft and do loop de loops, that should help you overcome your fear of flying.

Otherwise you could get a tranqualizer for why you fly.
Increase the travel frequency and you'll get used to it.
There is no other way, taking sleeping pills is harmful.
Think about why your nervous.
Are you afraid of the plane going down ?
Have a good look at what it is that is making you nervous .
When you find what it is think rational thoughts.
Sounds simple but a thought can make or break you!
One loses a lot of enjoyment by letting fear rule their thinking.
Sleep. Grab a cd player use gum etc.
Try not to think about the fact that you're so far off the ground as to anyone that'd be a bit scary. I am also from the caribbean and when I know i'll be travelling I try to get as LITTLE sleep as possible. That way when I get on the plane I'm too tired to be nervous and usually sleep through the majority if not the whole flight.
